  3. Focus • Information infrastructures is a concept describing large scale, complex, and networked technologies such as the Internet (or e.g. DNBNor and OUS with 3500 integrated applications) • Include both the technical components and also the interconnected social and organizational elements such as work practices, organizational arrangements, human resources, politics, and other institutional conditions. • Complexity • Scaling/growth • Integration strategies, architectures • Standardization-flexibility • Organizing/governance/collaboration • Understanding, knowing how-to, doing • Empirical Studies & Software development
